    Charging Failiure

    For some reason that link is not working for me, but then again I don't have a FB account so that may be why. Are there any 24v alternators that you all would recommend or at least how many amps should I be looking for in one? I'd like to keep the mounting modifications as minimal as possible...

    Charging Failiure

    Okay, so I've followed the manufacturer troubleshooting guide that Ronmar linked (super thanks by the way) and according to those tests, the voltage regulator is bad. I know Midwest Military Equipment has the N3030 voltage regulator for sale, but does anyone know of another place that might...

    Charging Failiure

    -24v is present on the eng circuit once the engine is running, so that appears to be working correctly. -The batteries should be fine as they are only about a year or two old, but I can certainly go get them tested for their CCAs. I'm running four of the the original size 6TL batteries. -Fair...

    Charging Failiure

    Unfortunately mine does not appear to have the LEDs since it's the older model n3030 Oil pressure switch is all good and the excite wire is getting 24v as expected

    Charging Failiure

    I've cleaned up the ground strap between the alt. and the chassis with good continuity between the two. reading directly from the lugs on the alt. I'm getting 24v and 12v. Nowhere near the expected amount.

    Charging Failiure

    Currently all the batteries are reading around 12.5v, but I charged them since the 12v batteries were down around 11.7v. I'm now remembering that I have already cleaned the Rev. Polarity Box and covered the contacts in a bit of dielectric grease a while back to try and fix the flickering issue...

    Charging Failiure

    Hey everyone, I've got a M1078a0 which has a failed charging system. The truck runs and drives just fine, but the alternator is not putting out any extra voltage (it reads around 24v and 12v when running). I've gone through the whole TM troubleshooting guide and have gotten to the step of...

    Maryland - M1078 Title and Tags

    Very true, but I'll hardly be using the vehicle for anything that's on the road anyway so it's not a real deal breaker to me; and I'd say 2/3rds of the older pickups in my area are daily driven with historic tags and aren't looked at twice by police. When I was doing the paperwork to get plates...

    Maryland - M1078 Title and Tags

    UPDATE: I took the SF-97 directly to the MVA this morning. They gave me historic plates and a title will arrive in a few weeks.

    Maryland - M1078 Title and Tags

    Yeah, there was a mess up with the EUC paperwork and COVID had the processing office shut down for a few months.

    Maryland - M1078 Title and Tags

    I finally managed to get my M1078 that was purchased from GovPlanet way back in February into my yard with SF-97 in hand. I am now trying to at least get the title for it and am running into a few snags. In mid October I went to Terry's Tag & Title in Westminster and they told me they'd be able...
